Holy Spirit picked this sermon out just for you and I today. I've learned something from it. Listen to me. We gotta stop trying to clean everybody all up when all they need is a feet washed. If Jesus has saved you and you're saved born again, You may walk through the world and pick up like a sponge because if you're in the navy, you go to the water cooler, you're gonna pick up some language that you ought not say. Come on. Come on. Amen. You say, not me. You're a liar because you thought it in your head. [01:07:44] (33 seconds)  #WashTheFeet Download clip

So, some of you today are struggling because you don't think god can use you because your past. I'm telling you, god's already forgot about your past. You're the only one who remember you and Satan. He chose to no longer remember it. He died on the cross to set you free from that, and he's called you to be part of a unique, loving expression of his love called Calvary, Virginia Beach?

And will you take ownership of the seat and the position that he's put you in to reach people for Christ and to claim to the Christian world that believes that they can't do it anymore because they're dirty to say exactly what Jesus said to Peter. Honey, I don't need to wash your head, your hands. Only thing dirty is your feet. Come back home. Come back to the Bible. Allow the holy spirit to move in your life once again instead of grieving him. You see, there's a dying world out there. We have the answers, and this little room here is not big enough in Hampton Roads to handle the crowd that could be here. [01:26:36] (62 seconds)  #TakeYourSeatForChrist Download clip

You've walked around in a nasty world for a week or two weeks or three weeks or six months and you've not gotten in the word of god. You've not taken a bath like you're supposed to. You're clean all over because you're saved but what you've not done is you've not washed your stinky feet from walking around the world and you wanna tell and want me to tell you something? Hey, and and I want y'all to listen up. If you see me walk away from somebody, a lot of times, if they're negative and all of that mess, I walk away and I tell them go to one of deacons.

We've gotta serve sacrificially. You need to understand that there's a cost. It's gonna cost you something if you're gonna serve god. If you're gonna be one of those that wanna serve humbly, it's gonna cost you to serve god. Romans twelve one says what? That we live a life what? That sacrifice to serve him. Amen. There's got to be a sacrifice. That's a living sacrifice. [01:18:45] (34 seconds)  #LiveASacrificialLife Download clip

You say, well, that that's not what I wanna do. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. That's what Jesus did. Jesus necessarily didn't wanna go to the cross, but he did because he loved us so much. And if we love what Christ done, why can't we turn our selfishness down just a little bit and why can't we be the family of god here? Hey, you say that it feels like a family. How about let's be the family? Come on. [01:24:45] (27 seconds)  #BeFamilyNotSelfish Download clip

If you're gonna be a follower of Christ, we've gotta have this type of mindset. If you're gonna be used of God in a mighty way and stop playing church, because some of you got half of it right and half of it wrong. We learned that, last week. We got a wrong view, and we built upon years of going to church that we've heard all this wrong stuff. Well, it's about me. I've done this, this, this, this. If I wouldn't have done this, the church would have failed. Baby, god's church not gonna fail if you walk out. [00:57:07] (34 seconds)  #StopPlayingChurch Download clip

Go back to biblical times. It was like that. You're walking through all of that, and you have to clean your feet. When we walk through this world, this sinful world, we have to clean our feet. If you're gonna live humbly, you've got to clean your feet, and it's gotta be done every day. Somebody wanna jump up in the bed with dirty feet. I've got dogs that do that. I get after them even. Amen? [01:18:16] (28 seconds)  #HumbleDailyCleansing Download clip
